Thanks much Bob.  There is a definite adjustment being made in budget on
this.  Throwing money at a system that will "almost" work would be a very
bad thing.  I've been researching 10g ethernet, prices (for used cards, as
well as a couple new) are coming down which is nice, but costs are still
relatively high for us poor folk out here in the middle of nowhere.  I
think between you, and the reading and youtubing I've been doing i'm much
closer to understanding enough to help them decide.
